Antique Embalming Table

I don't know the exact age, but my research would lead me to believe between late 1800s to early 1930s. Door to Door embalming stopped and funeral homes became common around the 1930's. It appears to not be marked with any manufacturer. Constructed of wood, caining, leather and metal. Has tenon joinings. Metal pieces include extensions to the legs to give one end a lift to help fluids drain. These are height adjustable: Two Arm cuffs and one head piece. There is also at both ends metal frames my guess is to drape something on. I'm not sure of the metal types.
